MAP Testing on Monday and Tuesday, January 9 and 10.
At RBMS we want all of our students--regardless of their current academic level--to continually grow and improve. A point of emphasis this semester is to celebrate that growth. MAP assessments are untimed in order to better gauge each student’s strengths and weaknesses rather than their ability to complete the tests within a specific time frame.
There are a couple of other notable dates in the near future, too. Please remember school is not in session on MLK Day, Monday, January 16th. The next off day after that is Friday, February 17 (a professional development day).
It's #uglysweaterday here at #RBMS. And the @BarkerBruins Office Staff have done burned the AP with their #overthetop #uglysweater. Lots of laughs and plenty #thepowerofmoments ahead today as staff and students witness the gag. #culture #teamRBMS
It's #semifinal time and some #teamRBMS home rooms are still in it to win it. Enjoy the #beautifulgame and remember that #footballislife
Things are really heating up with the home room support for the World Cup. Just this morning a student from Ms. Cain's home room #Argentina said: "I hope Croatia beat Brazil so that we can crush Croatia" [in the semis]. #sogood #footballislife #teamRBMS
The first set of fixtures are over. Tomorrow kicks off game two of the group stage and the fixture to watch is England vs USA. Today:
Mr. Schoeller opened with a win against Mrs. Stafford
Mrs. Burger was held by Mrs. Woody
Mrs. Withrow beat Mrs. Risner
Mrs. Cable defeated Serbia
Let's hear from some Bruins. Comment below with best game, best goal, and biggest upset.
Today we enjoyed a live draw for each Homeroom to be allocated a World Cup team. So much fun as homerooms were randomly selected and then chose a numbered card to reveal their team. Ss immediately started researching their team: records, wins, probabilities, etc. #teamRBMS
It's been another wonderful week for @BarkerBruins at #RBMS. From lessons about our flag, to choose love, and #principalsadvisorycommittee, our Ss have been very busy. Looking forward to another great week before Thanksgiving Break. #teamRBMS #BearDown
Ss in Mr. Schoeller's class are enjoying some #gamification as they work on finding the main idea of passages. This activity is called "Schoeller Says". Zoom in to the screen and decide whether you would look straight ahead or look down at the ground. #teamRBMS #BearDown
@BarkerBruins is proud to support the Jesse Lewis Choose Love Movement in Bentonville. This year's celebration is November 9 in the Downtown Bentonville Square. Details at bentonvillek12.org
Here's a glimpse of our incredible Ss enjoying some crafting activities in #CircleOfFriends. These amazing kids have time to interact, play, and learn together regularly at @BarkerBruins. #teamRBMS
Our first Ss to receive tokens for the new Book Vending Machine have happily picked their books. Ss demonstrating @BarkerBruins #PRIDE may be rewarded with a token any time during the year. All staff have two gold coins to pass out. Can't wait to see who's next.
The @BarkerBruins #spiritday is #redwhiteandblue in recognition of our great country. Only captured a couple of images, but the celebrations were significant. Staff, especially, were incredibly patriotic. Although too many flaunted the #nowhitepantsafterlaborday rule. Apparently @mrbobbybones says it's okay now.
Great things happening around campus today. Mr. Kerr reading with Ss, Mr. Supple joining a small group discussing community projects, and Mr. Parker celebrating with a 5th grade math whizz. #Goodtimes at @BarkerBruins. #teamRBMS #BearDown
